Re:Webring

Eric,
       I noticed this when I started the ring. I thought most wouldn't mind 
because. In my opinion I wouldn't mind others using my images. If I placed 
my web address on them in an artful type of way that if the address was 
cropped out of the image it would leave the image unusable. I would think 
that would bring more hits to my site.
        I've looked at a few different webring suppliers, and the ease of 
use that the Yahoo ring affords everyone just cant be beat.

         You have beautiful work.. my wife and I are Heartbroken that you 
cant join.. it would have been a very nice edition.
                       Ray & Christine
